Who We Are

Clever Digital Marketing (CDM) is a performance marketing agency trusted by the largest home improvement companies across North America. We specialize in scaling client growth through full-funnel paid media strategies and deep business consulting. CDM’s success is powered by its industry-leading reputation for exceptional service delivery and performance, with growth driven almost entirely by client referrals and expansion.

Our Enterprise Business Unit (EBU) partners with home improvement industry leaders managing $500K+ monthly ad budgets. These are high-touch, high-value, performance-obsessed clients. We operate as strategic advisors to them, integrating deeply with their internal teams to drive measurable growth through not only paid media strategy and execution, but also sales enablement, customer experience, and long-term profitability.

Our agency thrives on accountability, transparency, proactive leadership, and results - and we’re looking for leaders who do too.

The Opportunity

We’re seeking a high-performance Account Director to lead enterprise-level accounts and client relationships with a deep sense of ownership, authority, and drive.

You’ll be in the driver’s seat - serving as the face of the agency and a strategic growth partner to your clients. This role is not for the passive or reactive. You’ll push boundaries, challenge thinking, and anticipate problems before they arise, guiding both clients and internal teams with confidence and clarity.

Operating at the intersection of strategic consulting, performance marketing and analysis, and client leadership, you’ll oversee as many as 3-5 large-scale accounts, each representing multimillion-dollar marketing investments, and play a key role in driving measurable business growth for your clients and for CDM.

  • Coachable & Growth-Minded: You see feedback as fuel, not criticism.
  • A Nature Leader with Presence: You lead with confidence and presence while building trust and collaboration with clients and agency teams alike.
  • A Builder at Heart: You’re not afraid to roll up your sleeves, bringing structure to ambiguity and creating the clarity, tools, and direction that enable your clients and teams to perform at their best.
